The weather was wonderful last week and I took a walk around my neighborhood. This photo is from a design on a playground play structure.

Today’s song is “Prisencolinensinainciusol” by Adriano Celentano. Recorded in 1972 during a period when the Italian music charts were ruled by English and American music, the lyrics are basically nonsense sung to sound like an American song. Celentano is the second best-selling Italian artist of all time, and this song is one of his best-selling singles. It is now considered proto-rap by those who care about such things. What really matters is that this is a stone cold banger.
